Contemporary 4 & 5a Monday
Pre-requisite: must be enrolled in a ballet class at the same time (Jazz is highly recommended)
Contemporary dance is the exploration of the total movement potential of the body. Contemporary is not bound by set standards, as well as defined styles such as ballet or jazz. Instead, it seeks to express a personalized vision, often through experimentation and collaboration for the development of new, more individualized approaches to the moving body and choreographic possibilities. It does not refuse classical ballet’s leg technique in favor of modern’s stress on the torso, while it also employs contract-release, floor work, fall and recovery, and improvisation characteristic of modern dance. This class meets once per week.
Prerequisite: currently enrolled in a ballet class, jazz experience is highly recommended

Ballet 2 Monday
Beginner Ballet classes for children in 2nd and 3rd grade. These classes include a classical ballet barre, port a bras, chasses, grand jetes, sautes and adagio combinations, as well as stretching. Level 2 is the transition year from the fantasy levels into a slightly more serious/focussed technique level. BUT we use many props such as hula hoops, cones, and minor costuming! These classes meet once/week for 1 hour.

Ballet 3 Tuesday
For dancers in 4th grade and up. This class meets twice per week (make sure to register for the other class held on Friday's). This class is a Beginner-Intermediate level ballet class. In this level we start to put elements learned in prior levels together. For example, Passe (Level 1) became pique-passe (Level 2) now becomes pique turn. This is an exciting level as dancers slowly develop a more focussed, but still fun, approach to dance. We meet twice per week because we want our dancers to develop a muscle memory and recall a little more quickly as we start to introduce a more complicated ballet terminology.
At this level we change how we move to the next level from age to ability. We do not expect any dancer to complete a level in less than two years. We believe that each dancer is unique, with their own strengths and weaknesses, and as long as they are consistent in their attendance and give their best effort while in class, they will progress at a pace that is appropriate for them.

Ball Core Conditioning class is a strength building class specifically designed for dancers.

Any student who fools around and does not listen to the instructor will be asked to observe for the day and, if necessary, be asked to leave the class/course. All materials are supplied by the studio.
